Jorden Heidal
I am a self-taught visual artist in Spokane WA. My work is primarily abstract based with influences from the PNW and my life journey. I typically work to portray my journey in a visual way that has never been seen before, making each piece it’s own personal experience for both myself and my audience. I use acrylic paint/ink mediums the most, but am often using a mixed media of paint, pastels, spray paint, and pens. I’m excited to be returning to Spokane and to share my work with a new community. You will often find me creating art on-the-go and collaborating with artists of different practices to discover new ways of expression.
